Infinite Comprehension by Taking In Disciples: Martial Uncle, Please Ascend!

Bai Xian felt a surge of inner joy. From Li Cheng’s confidence, combined with the fact that Li Cheng had previously paid his dues with an exquisite Immortal Pill, Bai Xian knew that the possibility of Li Cheng claiming first place was very high!

With that in mind, what terms should he use to engage him?

After pondering for a few seconds, Bai Xian said, “Among the ten great heavenly books, the Wordless Heavenly Scripture ranks tenth because people simply do not understand its power, and because nobody has realized any profound cultivation techniques or immortal arts from it. In truth, the Wordless Heavenly Scripture is not any weaker than the other heavenly books.”

“If fellow Daoist truly manages to take first place, then the fame of our Wordless Sect will spread far and wide. At that time, I can authorize the transfer of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture for fellow Daoist to control for a hundred years!”

“Moreover, I can also reveal the location of the most mysterious heavenly book to fellow Daoist!”

The most mysterious heavenly book?

In Li Cheng’s view, each of the ten great heavenly books was very mysterious.

Seeing that Bai Xian did not continue, Li Cheng asked, “Which one?”

Bai Xian just smiled and remained silent.

Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said, “The heavenly book that the world refers to as the most mysterious is naturally the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture; after all, compared to the others, heavenly books often appear in the world, but only the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture remains so elusive that not even its true form is clear.”

Could it be that Bai Xian knew the whereabouts of the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture?

Even Immortal Emperor Tianyuan only knew that the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture might be in the Immortal World but didn’t know its exact location; did Bai Xian truly have this knowledge?

After contemplating for a few seconds, Li Cheng felt, better to believe that it existed.

Since he already agreed to Bai Xian, he would give it his best effort.

“Alright, let’s hear the details,” Li Cheng said.

Bai Xian was overjoyed and made a small bow, “May 1 ask for your honored name?”

It was a matter of great importance and yet, without even asking for a name, they had reached an agreement it was hard to tell whether to call Li Cheng forthright or to say both parties had been hasty.

Li Cheng returned the gesture, “Li Cheng!”

“Fellow Daoist Li Cheng, please follow me. We shall go to the Wordless Sect, and I will explain everything in detail!” Bai Xian said.

Li Cheng nodded. Initially, he suspected Bai Xian of plotting a robbery or seeking an excuse to lure, deceive and rob those attending the Alchemy Dao Conference, but now he had let down his guard.

For normally, if an Immortal King wished to rob an Immortal Monarch, there would be no need for such complications. After all, under normal circumstances, the gap between realms was a vast gulf, leaving no worries about a foiled robbery.

Following Bai Xian, they deployed the Immortal Spirit Step and took ten thousand steps, finally arriving at the site of the so-called Wordless Sect.

What came into view was a desolate mountain range, with a few wooden huts scattered sporadically amongst the mountains, faintly showing signs of past prosperity, but that glory was a very distant history.

“Here we are, this is the place. 1 apologize for any modesty,” Bai Xian said with a bow, his face full of helplessness.

Li Cheng’s Immortal Sense had already scanned the Wordless Sect, and he couldn’t help but be surprised, for the entire sect consisted of merely a dozen people!

A sect with just over ten people -could it even be considered a sect?

Perhaps for this reason, the Wordless Sect didn’t even bother hanging up a signboard.

This was indeed the most humble sect he had ever seen!

Li Cheng looked at Bai Xian, “How does the Wordless Sect fare in the Immortal World?”

Bai Xian smiled bitterly, “The sect is withering, and we hardly gain any new disciples, so we are indeed struggling among the sects of the Immortal World, with just over a hundred people in the entire sect.”

This is indeed difficult, a once top-tier sect has now fallen into such a state, truly lamentable!

“Could it be that they have offended some major power? Otherwise, even a camel on its last legs is bigger than a horse, your sect shouldn’t have fallen so low,” Li Cheng asked.

Whether it’s the Immortal World or the Kunlun Realm, the Wordless Sect has fallen extremely hard. Without a major power behind this, who would believe it?

Bai Xian nodded, “My Wordless Sect rose with the Wordless Heavenly Scripture and fell with it too. However, 1 believe that one day, the Wordless Sect will rise again.”

Li Cheng didn’t elaborate on the decline of the Wordless Sect to avoid rubbing salt in the wound and instead asked, “What’s this Pill League conference all about?”

Bai Xian was startled, looking at Li Cheng with surprise. It was clear from his expression, you don’t know about the Pill League conference?

Not even knowing about the Pill League conference and still claiming to take the first place?

Isn’t that absurd?

But on second thought, he was aiming for the top one hundred, and considering Li Cheng’s abilities, entering the top hundred should be possible. As for the first place, he stopped thinking about it.

Comforted by this thought, Bai Xian felt better and smiled, “Here in the Divine Palace Region, many powerful alchemists have joined forces to establish the Pill League. This Pill League conference is precisely an alchemy competition initiated by the Pill League, inviting heroes from all over to participate.”

“The Pill League conference happens once every hundred years, and every time a force seizes a place in the top hundred, not only do they get rewards from the Pill League but they also make a name for themselves, attracting more people to join.”

“So every time the Pill League conference begins, all powers go crazy. Those sects without powerful alchemists are just like me, looking all over for external support. Over the years, the Pill League has gotten used to it and doesn’t pay any mind.”

Li Cheng understood that in the eyes of the Pill League, the purpose of hosting the Pill League conference was to discover those powerful alchemists, so they really didn’t care which powers these alchemists represented.

“What levels of alchemists have appeared at the Pill League conference?” Li Cheng asked again.

“Seventh level!”

Seventh-level alchemists are extremely rare.

Especially for attending such a high-profile event like the Pill League conference, eighth and ninth-level alchemists probably wouldn’t stoop to participate.

Just like adults generally don’t join in children’s games.

Li Cheng thought quietly, this time it might be different because many Ancient Ruins have emerged, with numerous strong individuals, and high-level alchemists mustn’t be few!

These people could very well come to the Pill League conference to make a name for themselves.

It seems I need to prepare thoroughly and strive for a good ranking to get my hands on the whereabouts of the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture.

Li Cheng believed that as long as he made it into the top ten, Bai Xian wouldn’t conceal anything.

Bai Xian was also deep in thought. If a seventh-level alchemist appeared again this time, then the overall difficulty would go up. By then, as long as Li Cheng could make it into the top hundred, he would tell Li Cheng about the whereabouts of the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture!

After understanding the details of the Pill League conference, Li Cheng flew to a solitary peak to start a retreat. When the time of the Pill League conference was near, Bai Xian would naturally come to call for him.

On this solitary peak, there was a very ancient yet Book Collection Pavilion, where extremely precious ancient texts were stored.

Seeing this, Bai Xian felt somewhat helpless. At first, when Li Cheng said he would go into retreat until the conference began,

Li Cheng’s retreat turned out to be reading books, which made him feel somewhat uncomfortable. He wanted to urge Li Cheng to stop reading and start preparing his Pill Skill urgently, but he still held back.

However, after secretly observing Li Cheng for a few days, Bai Xian started to panic.

Why? Because Li Cheng was reading books on alchemy, not skipping a single one; he read them all thoroughly.

With the conference approaching and still reading books on alchemy instead of practicing and improving his alchemy proficiency, Bai Xian began to doubt, could it be Li Cheng was desperately cramming at the last moment?
